a_o sin_n because_o thereby_o a_o man_n be_v make_v obnoxious_a to_o death_n and_o eternal_a condemnation_n the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n and_o by_o nature_n we_o be_v child_n of_o wrath_n if_o

be_v to_o be_v show_v though_o some_o think_v it_o hard_o to_o say_v so_o thus_o the_o apostle_n by_o one_o man_n offence_n sin_n enter_v into_o the_o world_n therefore_o adam_n actual_a sin_n and_o
